prevent um-imapd writing folders to $HOME?

I'm running debian unstable, and uw-imapd. Is there any way to prevent uw-imapd from writing its mail folders to $HOME, which clutters up things in the $HOME directory terribly? I'd really like it to put the folders in $HOME/imap-folders etc. I tried reading some notes under /usr/share/doc/libc-

frozen-bubble won't load after moving to unstable

Ever since I upgraded from stable to unstable recently, I have been unable to execute frozen-bubble anymore. I've been getting the following errors: $ /usr/games/frozen-bubble Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/auto/SDL_perl/SDL_perl.so' for module SDL_perl: libGL.so.1: cannot handle TLS data at

want to undo apt-pinning

I had a debian stable system that was running well. Then, I wanted to try out some parts of the unstable packages, but without fully going to unstable. So I followed instructions for apt-pinning at http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html and installed some packages via e.g. "apt-get -t un

searching for what package includes a given file

I just successfully used "Search the contents of packages" from http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages to determine what package in "stable" provides GL/glx.h. Is there a way to do that search via command-line tools without resorting to the web page? I know that dpkg -S will do that for packages

image viewer that refreshes?

I have a .jpg image that keeps changing (from a webcam). Is there an image viewer in debian's packages that will display the image and automatically refresh the image when it has changed? I've already tried gqview, xli and display, and qiv. ('display -update 1' doesn't update as advertised). Th
